Stray Cats-"Rock This Town"

   Both sides of my promo 45 have a listed time of (3:24), but both have an actual time of (2:38). And although both sides of my promo 45 specifies "stereo", both sides are actually mono, as are all of the 45/LP CD versions for this song in the database.

	Jim: That's a drastic time difference. Did you mean 3:28?

	No, Jim is correct--the 45 version of the song runs 2:38 as noted in its databse appearances.

	DOH! I should've checked the database first! My apologies, Jim. I really appreciate the timing info you provide and how to recreate the 45 versions from Aaron, Ron and everyone!

	My commercial copy also states a time of (3:24) but runs (2:38) and also states stereo, but is really mono.
